This track depicts masked sequence as determined by WindowMasker on the the 10 Oct 2017 Varroa jacobsoni/GCF_002532875.1_vjacob_1.0/GCF_002532875.1 genome assembly. The WindowMasker tool is included in the NCBI C++ toolkit. The source code for the entire toolkit is available from the NCBI FTP site.
To create this track, WindowMasker was run with the following parameters:
windowmasker -mk_counts true -input GCF_002532875.1_vjacob_1.0.unmasked.fa -output wm_counts windowmasker -ustat wm_counts -sdust true -input GCF_002532875.1_vjacob_1.0.unmasked.fa -output windowmasker.intervals perl -wpe 'if (s/^>lcl\|(.*)\n$//) { $chr = $1; } \ if (/^(\d+) - (\d+)/) { \ $s=$1; $e=$2+1; s/(\d+) - (\d+)/$chr\t$s\t$e/; }' windowmasker.intervals > windowmasker.sdust.bedThe windowmasker.sdust.bed included masking for areas of the assembly that are gap. The file was 'cleaned' to remove those areas of masking in gaps, leaving only the sequence masking. The final result covers 53,195,549 bases in the assembly size 365,585,945 for a percent coverage of % 14.55.
